Doubting Toward Faith: The Journey to Confident Christianity
Contrary to popular belief, doubt is not the opposite of faith. Rather, doubts call for an important decision—will you give in to unbelief, or will you continue the journey toward faith?
Doubt can lead to confusion, hopelessness, and despair. But as this eye-opening book demonstrates, doubts can also deepen your dependence on God, develop your sense of empathy for others, and motivate you to find satisfying answers to life’s biggest questions. Here you’ll find practical ways to use your doubts to build your faith, such as…
- letting your doubts drive you to Jesus
- finding a safe community where you can doubt out loud and find support
- using a journal to clarify your doubts and the answers you find
No one can eliminate all doubt this side of heaven. So for now, discover how to use your doubts to keep you headed in the right direction—toward faith.
